Is there anything out there for BSDI unix that will once a users disk 
quota is reached start deleting OLD email some people just dont 
understand that theyy have to delete email when done.  One guy had had 
OVER 400 email messages. And I hate having to go into their account and 
delete OLD mail because they cant access their account!!

Also whats a good ratio for the soft and hard blocks   Right now we can 
only allow a 2 meg LIMIT due to hd space and our quota for the users is 
setup as:

Quotas for user <user>:
/usr: blocks in use: 1416, limits (soft = 2000, hard = 2300)
        inodes in use: 44, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0)


How can I get around always having to go in and delete stuff for a user?
